@Erick Yarus If you want to have a long jeopardy in the RE industry then you need to get your ducks in line first.

Hello everyone my name is Shane, I currently have no experience or knowledge of the real estate investment industry but I plan to change that real soon.

New Real Estate appHow much do you think this will shake up the industry?

Great first step to learning and investing.Check out BP's Ultimate Beginner's Guide, it helps to form a general foundation in the industry.

The RE is a HUGE industry that I am sure is filled with TONS of scammers, fraudsters, and everything in between.

I'd like to practice my art (since I'm already in school for it) and invest in real estate too if at all possible.Since I do not know any successful investors in this industry (yet), I read books from people like Kiyosaki, Robbins, and de Roos.

The reason being, is all the fraud that occurred and as a result in the collapse of the mortgage industry.
